While that sounds like a fanboy's dream for traversing an open-world Zelda game, it's actually a real thing happening in Mario Kart 8.

The picture is only concept art, but it gives you a pretty good idea of what the vehicle will look like in Mario Kart 8. Did you happen to notice it's shaped like a horse?

In fact, I don't think it's that much of a stretch to imagine a more steam-punk style Zelda title that includes the motorcycle as a mode of transportation. Okay--maybe now it's me who's dreaming.
